The seeds of a civil war, are just waiting to explode....
WASHINGTON — Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., on Thursday night informed Republicans in a closed-door meeting that he was dropping his bid to be House speaker, one day after he captured the GOP’s nomination for the top job.
Moments later, Scalise, the No. 2 Republican in leadership, confirmed the news to reporters outside the room.
“I just shared with my colleagues that I’m withdrawing my name as candidate for the speaker designee,” Scalise said after walking out of the room.
Sen. Robert Menendez was charged Thursday with conspiracy to act as a foreign agent, in a fresh indictment that updated bribery allegations unveiled in federal court in September.
Menendez and two co-defendants, wife Nadine Menendez and Wael Hana, were charged with conspiracy to represent the government of Egypt and Egyptian officials. The indictment cites the three with meeting at Manhattan restaurants with Egyptian officials on June 30, 2018, and Sept. 21, 2019, as part of the alleged conspiracy.
Menendez and his co-defendants have pleaded not guilty to the charges and he remains in the Senate, although he surrendered his chairmanship of the Foreign Relations Committee until the case is resolved. The trial is scheduled May 6.
Menendez faces corruption charges, brought by the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, for allegedly accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from three businessmen in exchange for helping them enrich themselves and trying to get them out of trouble, according to an indictment unsealed on Sept. 22 New York.

You and I may get there eventually
Where are we going?
The United States must prepare for possible simultaneous wars with Russia and China by expanding its conventional forces, strengthening alliances and enhancing its nuclear weapons modernization program, a congressionally appointed bipartisan panel said on Thursday.
The report from the Strategic Posture Commission comes amid tensions with China over Taiwan and other issues and worsening frictions with Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
A senior official involved in the report declined to say if the panel's intelligence briefings showed any Chinese and Russian nuclear weapons cooperation.
"We worry ... there may be ultimate coordination between them in some way, which gets us to this two-war construct," the official said on condition of anonymity.
The findings would upend current U.S. national security strategy calling for winning one conflict while deterring another and require huge defense spending increases with uncertain congressional support.

Here we have Putin, alleged "white hat", leader the Great Awakening, savior of mankind, sympathizing with genocidal terrorists who are now calling for a global jihad.

I said the mental gymnastics is the result of believing Putin is Q or a white hat. Do you believe either of these two things?
